Failure of AEB system - happens for no discernable reason and over-rides driver input.
Forward collision warnings for no apparent reason
Bad transmission(?) vibration when towing with any amount of throttle load
Suspension failure
Suspension changes height whilst travelling on a highway - no driver input & goes into offroad 1+2 mode combined.
EBA and LKA disable periodically
Low battery warnings
Blind spot assist works inconsistently.
Reversing camera gives incorrect vision or none at all.
Few others more minor.
Dealer tells me that JLR would not even airfreight for a guy who was stranded - don't know details. Apparently everything must be sea freight.
Dealer says it cannot look at other issues until shock error is cleared on their system.
That is a list of problems some of which could be related to a electrical fault or faulty ECU, the transmissions are usually reliable and are used on many makes and models, hopefully they have provided a loan vehicle and get it sorted soon but as with most mechanics now replace till problem goes away.
